"By the time you see this video, I will already be dead. I no longer care who was right or wrong. I only want to tell you that I hate you. I hate you so much. If there is a next life, I never want to see you again."

His voice before death was hollow, painful, cold, and weightless, like a judgment echoing from hell.

Joanna's face turned deathly pale. She suddenly looked up at the giant screen.

"Mason!" she cried out, her voice trembling.

    Her hostility surged out, and her killing intent was fully exposed.Adrian was frightened by Joanna. His eyes shifted, and he put on a weak, timid act."Jo, I... I was wrong. I will go die right now. A life for a life. I should have died overseas. I should not have come back. I was wrong."But this time, Joanna did not soften the way she had before.Without saying a word, she lifted the blanket and got out of bed.Forcing her sick body to move, she went to the old family house.She used her connections to have Dr. Tara Wells brought back from overseas. If not for Tara Wells, Mason would not have died. For the matter of the heart, Tara had to pay the price.Tara had already been beaten beyond recognition.Joanna threw everything she had found onto the floor, including the documents showing Tara Wells and Adrian had studied at the same school.She looked coldly at Adrian."You two know each other?

She suddenly looked up at the giant screen."Mason!" she cried out, her voice trembling.Then she drove away at full speed.No one dared stop the car. Joanna pressed the gas to the floor and reached the studio as fast as she could.By then, the studio had already been surrounded by police.Joanna tried to rush inside but was stopped."Ma'am, this is the scene of a death. You cannot enter."Joanna was about to lose her temper, but one sentence from the housekeeper drenched her in ice."Joanna, sir is already gone. His body has been cremated. His ashes are hidden somewhere you will never k

    The wedding was grand and solemn.Almost every prominent figure in the city attended. Everyone whispered about how absurd the wedding was, but no one dared say it openly. After all, no one dared provoke the person cherished most by the Cross family's heiress.The wedding was about to begin.Joanna still had not seen Mason, and panic clawed at her heart.She called Mason.No one answered.She called the housekeeper.The result was the same.Joanna panicked. She left the room, ready to drive out and look for Mason. Her intuition told her that something very important had been lost forever.Adrian, dressed in a custom suit, was having his makeup done. When he saw Joanna running out, he calmly told the groomsman, "Stop Joanna. Tell her that if she leaves, I will kill myself."The groomsman obeyed.After hearing that, Joanna's feet felt as heavy as lead. She hesitated, her hands trembling.She went upstairs and entered the dressing room.Adrian was sitting before the mirror as

    Suddenly, a friend request popped up.He introduced himself as Adrian Shaw and went straight to the point.[Are you the wedding officiant Jo mentioned that day?]At the old family house that day, Joanna had indeed introduced me that way.I did not reply.Adrian continued sending messages.[Wedding officiant, I am getting married in ten days. Do you have time to come to my place? We need to rehearse. My wife is pregnant, so there are a lot of things I should explain to you in advance.]The words stabbed my eyes.I touched my already numb heart and replied:[Okay.]In ten days, I would prepare a generous gift for them.The phone screen went dark, then lit up again. It kept ringing.Adrian sent the wedding time, the venue, and his wedding photos.Adrian smiled like a blooming flower.Joanna stood beside him, her whole body wrapped in a soft glow I could not describe.Dozens of photos, all filled with smiles.They proved the saying true: marrying the person you love makes y

    But the call would not go through.Joanna had blocked me.I kept calling anyway. Over and over, more than three hundred times.I was like a trapped animal, ramming myself against the bars again and again until my head was bloodied, yet still unable to escape.The doctors kept injecting me with medication, and I gradually stabilized.The housekeeper pointed at the doctor in front of us and said, "You must have misdiagnosed him. My sir is going to live a long life."Then she took me to other hospitals.For three days, I saw countless doctors, but every answer was the same.There was no treatment.Rest well, and maybe I might live to see spring.On the first day after I woke, I sent Joanna a message.[My heart condition is not cured. Other doctors say I only have a few days left.]Finally, on the third day, she replied.Joanna asked me instead:[Dr. Wells already said you were fine. Mason, stop lying. I know you are unhappy that I am with Adrian, but I promise you, I love yo

    I reached for the medicine Dr. Wells had prescribed and placed it under my tongue, but this time, it did not work.The pain was unbearable.My hands and feet went ice-cold, and it felt as if all the air had been sucked out of the room.I did not even have the strength to answer.Joanna lifted me into her arms."Wasn't he already better? Why is it this serious?"Then she called Dr. Wells.She asked anxiously, "Why is Mason in pain?"I only heard Dr. Wells say, "His condition has stabilized. He should not be hurting anymore unless he is pretending."Joanna fell silent.After she hung up, her phone rang. I saw it clearly. It was a message from Adrian.Joanna glanced at it and stood up without hesitation."I have to go."I called her name."Joanna."Thousands of words were trapped in my chest.I wanted to ask her why she believed a doctor but not me.Why she turned a blind eye to my pain.Why she chose Adrian again and again.But I had no strength to ask any of it.Joan
